Summer Returns


First I need to apologize to my Northern family for rubbing it in that cold temps were headed their way. I had mentioned that the humidity was down and 90 degrees didn't seem as bad. The humidity is back. Worse than that, have you looked at the Gulf of Mexico recently? Trouble is on the way in the form of Matthew and possibly Nicole. Since summer has returned, I thought these cards from the SU summer mini and Andrea Walford that I CASED would be a good post for the day.

Fall Holidays


It is hard to believe that it is time for the fall holidays. Fall is in the air even here in Florida where the temperature has dropped to the low 90s. How I know fall is close is the humidity has dropped too and that makes a big difference.
It is hard for me to photograph stained glass, but this give you an idea of what our October pumpkin looks like.

One Sheet Wonder


When the SU catalog retired this past summer, I bought a lot of retired sets and paper from demos. When I saw this paper, I loved it. It is so me; burgundy, flowers, and vintage. These cards are called one sheet wonders because they can be made with one 12 X 12 sheet of designer paper. After cutting the designer paper, it is attached to the card base and then embellished. The paper reminds me of old wallpaper.

Back to School


It used to be that school started the Tuesday after Labor Day. For most students, that is no longer the case and most are back to school by now. Where I taught, we were always back weeks before Labor Day. I no longer go back to school. Yeah! This card is for all my friends and relatives that did go back.
